"Firs' years! Firs years this way!" a familiar, cheerful, booming voice shouted through the mumbling of the students.
"Hi Hagrid!!!" Harry and Hermione shouted in unison.
"Ello Harry, Hermione. How was yer summer?" Hagrid asked.
"As good as it gets when you're with the Durselys" Harry said, then laughed.
"Oh, we all know how wonderful that is." Hermione joked.
"So, you two are prefects eh? Well, congratulations. You deserve it." Hagrid said warmly.
"Thanks Hagrid. We appreciate it." Hermione said, giving Hagrid a quick hug.
"Well, you better get to yer carriage 'fore they're all gone." Hagrid said, giving them a cheery wave. "See yas at the feast!"
"Bye Hagrid!" Harry and Hermione shouted in unison. Then Harry turned to Hermione and smiled. "Well, better do as Hagrid said. Let's get to the feast." They stepped into a nearby carriage and enjoyed the ride to the castle.
******************
As Harry and Hermione settled into their usual places next to one another in Great Hall, the little first years, led by Professor McGonagall came into sight.
"Before we start the Sorting Ceremony, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few words." Professor McGonagall announced to the Hall.
Professor Dumbledore stood up. "Welcome, welcome. It is another year, and with great pleasure, I present an exchange student from America. Let's give a warm welcome to Lily Davis."
With that a tall blonde girl came into sight. Many gasps came from boys, for she was beautiful. Her long pale blonde hair was angled, and her blue green eyes sparkled. She had a rosy complexion, and a warm cheery smile that showed pure white sparkly teeth. She was medium height, about 5'3. She looked around nervously, aware of the many stares she was getting from the boys. One she noticed in particular, was a silver haired boy with pale skin and big gray eyes. Draco Malfoy. He smiled nervously at her, and she gave a half smile back.
"Now, Lily, I want you to put on the Sorting Hat, and it will tell you which House you will belong in: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin." With that, Professor Dumbledore placed the Sorting Hat over Lily's head.
1.1.1 Lily's POV
I looked around the Great Hall nervously. Oh my lord, there are a lot of students. They all seem to be staring at me, some, all boys, with admiring looks. One guy seems to stand out. He has silver hair, and deep gray eyes. Oh, he is handsome. Oh lord, he smiled at me! I give him a half smile back. A fluttering sensation came into my stomach. Woah, I don't even know this guy. Do I already have feelings for him?
Professor Dumbledore's voice knocked me out of my thoughts. "I will place the Sorting Hat on your head, and it will tell you which house you will belong in: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin." With that he placed an old hat on my head.
"Ah, an exchange student eh?" A small voice said. I nearly screamed.
"Don't be afraid, I don't bite. Now let me see. Hmm, nice brain, plenty courage, bravery loads of it. I know just your place… GRYFFINDOR!" The Sorting Hat screamed. I sighed. I had heard a lot of good things about that house. Professor Dumbledore took the hat off my head, and I stood up. My ears turned up the volume, and I suddenly was aware of the loud noise coming from the table on the far left. I realized that the silver haired boy wasn't at that table. I looked at him. He seemed disappointed. Oh well. Tomorrow classes start and I might be able to meet him!
1.1.2 Normal POV
Lily eagerly took off the Sorting Hat and walked to the Gryffindor table. Harry watched as she slowed down, and turned towards the Slytherin table. Then, she quickly turned back towards the Gryffindor table and sat down next to Hermione.
"Hey, I'm Lily Davis," she said as she extended her hand towards Hermione. Hermione smiled as shook her hand. "I'm Hermione Granger."
Ron stuck out his hand. "I'm Ron Weasley."
Harry followed suit "I'm Harry Potter, you probably already know me."
Lily smiled. "Oh yes. I've read all about you."
Harry laughed. "Hey 'Mione, you got a bookworm friend here!"
Hermione smiled. "Do you like to read?"
"Oh yes, I love to read. I am pretty good at school too." Lily replied.
"Oh wonderful! Now at least SOMEBODY will read like me!" Hermione laughed.
"Say Herm-," Lily began, but was cut off by Professor Dumbledore.
"Now that the new students have been Sorted, let the feast begin."
And with that, the plates in front of them filled with food. Lily's eyes were as wide as saucers.
"Wow. That was amazing," she breathed.
"Don't worry Lily, you'll get used to it." Hermione said, helping herself to chicken wings.
"You guys can call me Lil if you want. That was my nickname before I came here." Lily said as she helped herself to potatoes and porkchops.
"Ok. So what were you asking me before?" Hermione asked.
"Oh. Who is that silver haired boy at the Slytherine table."
"It's Slytherin, and that is Draco Malfoy. Looks can be deceiving. He is a monster." Harry said.
"Yeah. That little git has made me and Harry lose hundreds of points for Gryffindor," Ron added. "Oh, by the way, this is my girlfriend, Lavender Brown," Ron added, blushing a little bit. Lavender smiled warmly, and extended her hand. "Pleased to meet you Lily. Oh, this is my friend Parvati Patil." Lavender added as she and Lily shook hands. Parvati also shook Lily's hand "Pleasure to meet you." She said.
"And you," Lily said smiling a bit.
During this meeting, Harry was only thinking about one thing: Hermione.
Dumbledore stood up again as the food disappeared.
"Now, off to bed." he said.
There was a great hustle to get to the doors. "Hey, Lily, follow me. I'll show you where the common room is," Hermione said, taking Lily's arm. "First years follow us!" she called over her shoulder. Then, guiding Lily up the stairs, they trudged to the common room.
When they reached the Fat Lady, Lily was shocked when the lady said "Password?"
"Rock Cakes," Hermione answered. Then, to Lily's great surprise, the portrait swung on its hinges to let the Gryffindors in. "Everyone by the fireplace!" Hermione shouted. Everyone, including Lily crowded around her.
"Alright. Boys your dormitory is up the stairs to your left. Girls, same on your right." The first years trampled up the stairs.
"C'mon Lils. Our dorm is up these stairs," Hermione added as she started up a different stairway. Lily followed. They entered a circular room with four beds with scarlet draping.
"Here you guys are!" Parvati exclaimed as she came out from under her bed. "Lils, your bed is that one, next to 'Mione's." she added pointing to one of the beds. Lily walked over to it and flopped down.
"Oh, it's so comfortable." She sighed. Then she got up, changed into her nightgown, brushed her teeth, and climbed into bed.
"Night 'Mione. Night Lavender. Night Parvati," she called sleepily as she drifted to sleep. But before she did, she thought of Draco Malfoy. "Maybe, just maybe, I can change him." She thought to herself before going into a deep slumber.
Hermione however, was wide-awake. She was only thinking about Harry. So, she crept out of bed, and to the boy's dorm, where she already found the five of them sound asleep. She went to Harry, kissed his forehead, whispered "night Harry," and turned and walked out of the dorm.
That's chapter 2… like Lily? Uh… I kinda changed the name from Lindsey cause I like the name Lily better. Maybe she might be a long lost cousin to Harry. In your reviews ask me what you think. R/R!!!
